You probably could get away without routing if you slightly shim the neck. You'll have to raise the Floyd a bit and you can just block it with a trem stop/similar. I think you'll be good to go after that.

Are the current Kramers 22 fret? Some of those are top mounts with D-Tuna's.

Hmm that’s a good thought!

It's just that model. It's Gibson scale, and just a hair over Gibson radius at 12-1/2". I almost bought one a couple times, I do like the specs.

Any build quality concerns? Seems like they’re made in Indonesia so probably best to get one in hand

My brother had a blue "84" that was Indonesian, and it was a great playing guitar, no issues. I almost bought one of those at one point too, but I don't like top mount Floyd's, so there's that. If I wanted a D-Tuna, I'd go for a Wolfgang, but I don't need 24 frets either. I play a Charvel So Cal now.

I don't know, I would check ebay. I paid less than 1k for this one but it was a while ago.

Man anything from the 1900s these days is just stupidly priced…I’ll definitely look but won’t hold my breath 😢

If it was just a matter of having 24 frets and light trem use with drop-D capabilities, I'd personally go with a Charvel DK24 with the Gotoh, and just block it for dive only, and drop-D with the tuner since there's no locking nut. I had this one, and actually loved it. The Full Shreds sounded really nice in it.. I sold it to get another SG. You can find them used pretty reasonably priced.

Yea I saw those too and if I was going that route I’d just get the mahogany body one!
